    Strip Club Drama

    Stripper asks for her boobs back after Houston client sues her for not returning his Harry Potter DVDs

    A 32-year-old Houston man is suing a local stripper, claiming she failed to return his beloved Harry Potter DVDs.

    Robert Wallace, software developer, fancied himself to be in a "dating relationship" with exotic dancer Nomi Mims. He apparently loaned Mims $2,000, a laptop and his collection of movies based on J. K. Rowling's books. Wallace allegedly met Mims last year when she was working at Treasures on Westheimer.

    When the alleged relationship ended on May 3, Wallace hoped Mims would return his items.

    "I've given him gifts too. You know, how do I get my booty and boobs back?"

    "After a week of waiting for her to return my things, I decided to file a suit to get my stuff back," Wallace tells Fox 26 News.

    Here's where things get a bit tricky. Mims claims she and Wallace were never in a "dating relationship" and the items he loaned her were simply "gifts."

    "I don't believe in loans because I don't want to pay anybody back," Mims says. "I've given him gifts too. You know, how do I get my booty and boobs back?"

    Mims claims Wallace isn't the first patron to ask for a refund. She also said she's had to deal with customers following her home, forcing her to move — and switch gyms and jobs.

    "No refunds in the strip club. I've even had people come up in there asking can he get a dance and he'll pay me back next week," Mims tells Fox 26. "We ain't got no layaway plans either."

    Wallace said that the situation has led him to rethink dating a stripper in the future.

    "I did kind of see it possibly ending this way," Wallace says.

    The case does not have a scheduled court date yet.

    Robert Wallace is suing Nomi Mims for not returning a laptop and his Harry Potter DVDs, as well as $2,000.

    WEATHER WATCH

    Houston will have vivid sunsets and air quality issues from Saharan dust

    The Saharan dust cloud causes vibrant sunrises and sunsets.

    An annual meteorological phenomenon has blown in to make Houston's sunsets a little more spectacular. A huge Sahara Desert dust cloud made its way to the Houston area on June 29, bringing hazy skies. The bad news is that air quality might worsen; the good news is that locals can expect a week of Technicolor twilights.

    According to the National Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service, the dust is caused by the 2.5-mile-thick Saharan Air Layer, which is associated with “warmth, dryness, and strong winds.” That has strong effects on weather patterns, including lessening the intensity of cyclones. ABC13 meteorologist Travis Herzog shared an image of the dust cloud on Threads.

    But Saharan dust can also wreak havoc on health. The fine particulate matter can trigger symptoms for locals with asthma, allergies, or other respiratory issues. Those sensitive to atmospheric irritation may experience sneezing, coughing, a scratchy throat, or shortness of breath. Some studies have even linked it with an increased risk of cardiovascular mortality.

    The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) recommends that people with underlying conditions stay indoors during dust storms. The vibrant red, orange, and yellow skies can still be enjoyed with the comfort of air conditioning.

    The blast of cold air will be welcome to everyone as the Sahara dust can also cause some of the hottest days of the year. NOAA says that is because the thick cloud can stifle cooling afternoon thunderstorms.

    Still, Houstonians might want to step outside to snap a pic of the breathtaking skies. The vivid dusks and dawns are caused by the sun’s rays scattering the dust particles in the atmosphere. Sunrises and sunsets typically take on warmer hues as low-angle sunlight passes through the atmosphere, but the dust particles enhance the striking effect.

    National Weather Service forecasts say that this year’s cloud will only bring light concentrations with no major impacts on visibility. The phenomenon is expected to dissipate by the end of the week.
